St Hilda's Playgroup is back! 0-5 Yrs, Tues Feb 4th 9.00-12.00 311 THE PARADE
Good news for parents! We will restart our regular Tuesday morning playgroup starting on February 4th at 9.00 am. This is for pre-school children from 0 to 5yrs, with special emphasis on the 0-2 year olds.
We operate as a drop-in playgroup so you can come at whatever time suits your child. A great chance to meet other parents and caregivers over a coffee and some delicious nibbles. Depending on numbers we could have a music session around 10.30. We ask for a Koha to cover the refreshments, and hall operating expenses.
Note: our next SPACE course for new parents and their babies starts the following day 5th February.
Playgroup and SPACE meet in the hall at St Hilda's church, 311 the Parade
Poll: Should we be giving the green light to new mining projects? 💰🌲
The Environmental Protection Authority announced this week that a proposed mine in Central Otago (near Cromwell) is about to enter its fast-track assessment process. A final decision could come within six months, and if it’s approved, construction might start as early as mid-2026.
We want to know: Should mining projects like this move ahead?

Constable Street car wash rip off!
Hi, today I went to the Constable Street car wash that's beside the petrol station. After depositing $6 for three different rinse cycles I discovered that there was no water pressure for any of them. I had just foamed my car so I had to drive around and join the que again to use the left car wash....this time I discovered that $2 only rinses half of my small Suzuki Swift whereas $2 used to rinse the whole car nicely. Two or three weeks ago I encountered the same 'no water pressure' problem there. I imagine that people will be depositing $2 coins to no avail in a continuous stream. It appears that the owner doesn't care about providing a proper service to to their paying customers.
